Ex-IDF Chief: Military Option Against Iran Still Exists
[Ha'aretz] Bradley Burston - Former IDF chief of staff Moshe Ya'alon told the United Jewish Communities General Assembly in Jerusalem on Monday that keeping the military option on the table was a vital element of a wider strategy encompassing political isolation of the Tehran regime, and international economic "smart sanctions." "I believe that most of the Western armed forces, especially air forces, have the right capabilities to deal with the Iranian regime, where it comes to intelligence, precise munitions, the ability to launch air strikes, penetrating defense systems, targeting the right facilities....Technically speaking, there is a military option," Ya'alon said.
